if that's porn, then there's a good chance it's only for those into necrophilia.

Hi there,

Yeah...ebay now prohibits (or is meant to) any reference that is not actually for sale.

So when people search for *Neve* having a Neve knob(the cheapest visible part) lends
legitimacy to the listing. There are a few of these types on ebay.

Cheers

Great... does that mean we're going to see more Behringer MX602As being sold with a plastic Neve knob, API 500 blank panel and non-functional SSL Plasma meter?

Probably not, actually... the plastic Neve knob and API panel together actually cost more. ;-)

That thing looks like a freaking nightmare.

Be ready to get out your hat and whip, and soldering iron, cuz whoever buys that is going to realize it should've belonged in a museum once they're done working on it.

Yes, it probably sounds awesome, but F that.

Give me a Midas or DDA, I've got a tape machine to setup.

Heh, well, nobody said porn was pretty.

Peace,

When in good nick - they didn't sound "awesome". They were highly proficient and a good unit.
I also imagine that this particular unit is a bit of a dog.... whoever gets it really doesnt know what they're letting themselves in for - power supplies are a bbbeeeyyaach on this baby. So porn? maybe "over 60's" .....

Right on, I just figure two things that have to work upon purchase are Mogami, connectors, patchbay, and mixers. Outboard can poop out, but...to hell with repairing the unnecessary. Damn, I do get a hard on for vintage gear, but not vintage health discussions.

Give me something that works on the mains. That's one major thing I've learned from DIY.

that's exactly what they're doing, because you can bet you're @ss they plugged it in; a working console is worth a lot more, after all.

you *know* very little, if anything, works on this creature. my wild guess is nothing powers up, no life. start with the power supply, work from there.

what this desk is: a great deal for someone who knows how to refurbish and rack up the modules. calrecs sound great, they hold their own with the big boys, and resale on 24+ modules would greatly outstrip the purchase price.
